Russia and Ukraine.

So what is happening in Russia and Ukraine is crazy. I hope that this is not the beginning of another cold war, or a minor cold war. Putin is one crazy ass man, whom I beleive as a huge superiority complex, and that is why he acts the way he does. I hope Russia realiizes this soon, and they vote him out next time he comes up for reelection.

They won't vote him out. They do actually really, really like the guy. But aside from that, a big problem in Russia is basically the exact opposite of the United States's; Putin's party, United Russia is just too dominant for opposition parties to have any real chance of winning. There are about three opposition parties that get a decent amount of votes in the Duma, but they split equally, so as a result you get United Russia getting only about 50% of the vote, but the next closest competitors are all hovering between 10 and 20%. The vote difference is even larger when we're talking about presidential elections. It'd be like getting rid of the Republican party in the US and in its place, three different splinter parties come up. Democrats would win every time.
